While champions will receive a few changes on the Rift, there are more balance updates for them when it comes to the ARAM mode.
When talking about the upcoming updates in League of Legends patch 13.1, Riot Maxwell said:
Some of the biggest highlights of the League of Legends ARAM changes will be the buffs making their way to both Zeri and Kai’Sa, with Katarina having her name on the nerf list.
Official League of Legends patch 13.1 preview: ARAM balance updates
Before moving on to the list of ARAM changes for League of Legends patch 13.1, it’s important to note that the updates mentioned below are tentative. Riot Games will first test them out on the League of Legends PBE server before shipping them with the official patch next week.
1) Buffs
The Marksman Class
Marksmen are suffering the most with the changes, so Riot Games will be returning a small amount of lifesteal power to move the whole class slightly upwards. Lifesteal effectiveness on minions: 50% -> 60%
Death Timers
In patch 12.23, death timers were changed to be three seconds longer in the late game. The change is being walked back a bit, and Riot Games is closely monitoring game time to consider further adjustments.
Death Timers at 11-18 are all reduced by 1 second.
